Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Chapter 588
Chapter 2 pulling the tiger's skin to pull the banner (four more)

The company collapsed, the wife and children were gone, and everything was gone. Just like the bankrupt bosses of later generations, standing on the roof and facing death is no longer fear, but a kind of relief. This is the true psychological portrayal of Dou Jiande at this time .

Of the 39 prefectures in Hebei, apart from Xiangzhou, which was first taken down by Chen Ying, and Mingzhou for the time being, the remaining 22 prefectures surrendered to the Tang State in just three days, and changed their banners, seemingly overnight. The whole country in Hebei has changed color.

Maybe everything is God's will, maybe everything is fate.

Sitting alone on the wall of Zezhou City, Dou Jiande looked far away at the Tang army camp opposite, feeling both bitter and helpless in his heart.

If it is because of God's will, it is really impossible to resist.

If it is because of fate, it can only be endured silently.

Ling Jing, who was standing not far away, was also full of sadness and helplessness at the moment.Naturally, he knew very well that Dou Jiande felt sore right now, but he really didn't know how to relieve Dou Jiande.Right now, Dou Jiande and Cao Zhan's troops in Huizhou have been isolated by Yang Wengan, the general manager of Qingzhou in the Tang Dynasty. Dou Jiande is a lone army with no backup, no rear, and no friends.

Although at this moment, Dou Jiande still has [-] to [-] paces to ride, looking at the world, no matter where he is, this is a force that cannot be ignored. Powerful to lift a tripod, but helpless.

"Your Majesty, it's not like we don't have a chance!" Ling Jing weighed his words, and said slowly: "Zezhou can't last long, we must get out as soon as possible. If we pack lightly, break through the siege and go north, and Sui Lord..."

"I understand what Ling Qing means!" Dou Jiande said with a wry smile on his face, "Since I have lost my country, how can I make a comeback? I know what you want to say, but... Hu species surrender!"

Ling Jing said: "Your Majesty's meaning, I understand!"

"You don't understand!" Dou Jiande stood up suddenly, pointed at the fearful Xia army soldiers around him and said, "I have already lost, enough people have died now, enough!"

……

Outside Xiazhou City, the Tang army camp, with the news of the victory in the Battle of Mingzhou, Hebei, Chen Ying's victory over Liu Heita, and the news of the 22 states of Hebei changing flags, at this moment the generals are gearing up and ready to move.

In fact, Li Jiancheng is also trying to resolve this battle as soon as possible.

The day after tomorrow is Li Xiuning's wedding day.When Li Xiuning married Chai Shao, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuan sent Li Xiuning to Daxing (Chang'an) city alone to marry Chai Shao because it was Li Yuan's plan to slow down the army.This is what Li Jiancheng owed Li Xiuning as his elder brother, so this time Li Xiuning's wedding was out of reason, and Li Jiancheng felt that he had to watch Li Xiuning put on the wedding dress and board the float with his own eyes.

Li Jiancheng murmured: "I want to destroy the city in one day, generals, who has a good plan?"

Xue Wanche said without hesitation: "His Royal Highness, the general is willing to go!"

Although the words are open and clear, Xue Wanche actually has no reason at all.It is very difficult to siege a city in this era, and he has no superpowers. He was the first to stand up, and he was actually showing his loyalty to Li Jiancheng.

However, Wei Zheng stood up, bowed his head and said respectfully: "Your Highness, I believe that we should be still and not move at this moment!"

Li Jiancheng frowned slightly, the truth is the truth, and Li Jiancheng also understands it.But emotionally, he hopes to return to Chang'an immediately and cover Li Xiuning with a veil.

It seems that Li Jiancheng's thinking is a little naive. In fact, Li Jiancheng is such a naive person, so in history, he lost, lost very badly, and died very badly.

Li Jiancheng's brows tightened even more: "I want to return to Chang'an!"

Wei Zheng smiled slightly and said, "If that's the case, then we have to reveal the cards in advance!"

"The hole card?" Li Jiancheng was slightly taken aback, and asked in confusion, "What hole card?"

Wei Zheng blinked at Li Jiancheng, and his smile grew stronger: "His Royal Highness, General Chen led his troops to help!"

Li Jiancheng's doubts were even worse: "General Chen?"

Wei Zheng's words were particularly heavy: "The champion general, General Chen, is coming to Zezhou to lead the left and right guards of the Eastern Palace and the most elite cavalry army under his command!"

Although Li Jiancheng's thinking is a little naive, but this is just Li Jiancheng's view of family affection. He believes that family affection is better than everything.The first time Wei Zheng said something inexplicable, Li Jiancheng really didn't understand it. He knew that Chen Ying and Li Xiuning's wedding was coming soon. With Chen Ying's character, he might have already returned to Chang'an, and at worst he should have entered Guanzhong by now. up.But Wei Zheng said that Chen Ying was coming, and Li Jiancheng understood.

Wei Zheng is pulling the tiger's skin to pull the banner.

In this era, there is neither a telescope nor a sky-clear camera. Even if Dou Jiande and Chen Ying have faced each other head-on, there are definitely not many people in the Xia Kingdom who can really recognize Chen Ying.When the two armies are facing each other, what you look at is the general idea, and what you look at is the banner. As long as Chen Ying's Da Tao is shown, the generals of the Xia army in Zezhou will definitely think that Chen Ying is coming!
Thinking of this, Li Jiancheng pondered: "Then...is it too early?"

Seeing Li Jiancheng's cooperation, Wei Zheng was overjoyed and said, "Perhaps His Royal Highness has other plans, but the Battle of Hedong has lasted for too long. Tens of thousands of soldiers are eating horses, which is also a big pressure for Datang. If we do not act for a long time, Dou Jiande will definitely think that we have no offensive power for the time being. If Dou Jiande does not surrender in a deadly battle, or if he lures the Turks into the customs, once Shuofang falls, I am afraid... Lingzhou will also be overthrown danger!"

Li Jiancheng said: "This time, our Tang Dynasty can't afford to lose. Hedong is the root of the Tang Dynasty, and there is no room for loss...forget it!"

Xue Wanche was in a daze, and vaguely felt: "General Chen is here?"

Li Jiancheng put on a face and said, "Command General Chen to show up!"

After receiving the order, the messenger turned around and walked out of the tent. It took less than half an hour. All the soldiers in the Tang Army camp outside Zezhou City knew the news. They had just defeated Liu Heita and conquered Mingzhou. General Chen, who surrendered in battle, came.

This news made the generals of the Tang army as excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

An hour later, on the official road from Luzhou to Zezhou, an army appeared in three columns, and thousands of soldiers marched forward mightily.All these sergeants held their heads high and kept their eyes straight. Thousands of shoes were raised and lowered at the same time, making a strange rhythm. The whole army was as neat as marching between two straight ropes.

On the one hand, the big tao was hunting in the wind.

Da Tao, who was one foot eight long and three feet wide, wrote a letter to the champion general Chen.

Xue Wanche rubbed his eyes and stared fixedly at a young general who was walking at the front of the team. This young man was slender, with delicate features, and he was really handsome.

However, Xue Wanche can swear that this will definitely not be Chen Ying.

Chen Ying and Xue Wanche fought side by side in Jingyang City. Although he would recognize Chen Ying turned into ashes, he must be bragging, but he can be sure that the Tang soldier in front of him is definitely not Chen Ying.

This troop continued to advance along the official road, ignoring the Tang army camp beside the official road, but drove straight to Zezhou City.

This kind of army that raises its legs neatly and settles down neatly is simply Chen Ying's signature. Although the Da Tao flag can be faked, the army cannot.

"Chen Ying is here, run!"

Countless Zezhou Xia Army defenders shouted in their hearts, with panicked faces.

Although Dou Jiande couldn't see Chen's face clearly, he felt something was wrong.Chen Ying's troops move so fast?

Those generals of the Xia army who were lucky in the first place were also sweating coldly at this moment.

If it was said that Chen Ying was a taboo in the Hebei army before, however, as the news spread that Chen Ying had completely defeated Liu Heikai, no one dared to underestimate Chen Ying anymore.

Chen Ying came, even if he was a vanguard, even if there were only a few thousand troops, it caused great panic to the generals of the Xia army.

Ling Jing's tongue was a little stiff, and he looked at Dou Jiande with difficulty and said, "What should your Majesty do?"

Dou Jiande looked at the soldiers of the Tang Army who were getting closer and closer, and his doubts grew, but the soldiers of the Xia Army around him were anxious.

"Break the Yanmen Pass one day and one night!"

"Break Hangu Pass in one hour!"

"Broken Mingzhou in half an hour."

If Li Jiancheng attacked Zezhou, they still had the confidence to hold on for a few days. However, Chen Ying's record was too scary. Under his attack, the generals of the Xia army would probably be wiped out.

Dou Jiande saw the reactions of the soldiers around him. They were already scared, and they were timid before fighting, which is a big taboo for military strategists. Now he has made the final decision.

"Break the city gate, offer the city to surrender?!
PS: I still owe the second update.
